Intro

Week 60 — still no shortcuts, still no hype. Just slow, steady progress. Another few hundred bucks added, a few more dollars in yearly income. That’s how real freedom is built — one deposit, one dividend at a time.

The best part? Those dividends are starting to do the work. iCloud? Paid for. Coffee? Paid for. Gym? Covered forever. The phone bill? Almost gone. Every week, another bill disappears — and the paycheck keeps coming, even when you’re asleep.

Because that’s what this game is about: replacing hours with income. Not gambling. Not timing. Just consistency.

Here’s what matters this week:

☑️ Another raise in passive income — without lifting a finger.
☑️ A few more wins added to the list.
☑️ And the snowball? Still rolling, still getting heavier.

It’s not flashy, but it’s freedom — one small win at a time.

This Week’s Wins 💪

• ✅ iCloud storage ($18/mo) – covered forever by dividends (7 weeks in).
• ✅ Gym membership ($25/mo) – covered forever (13 weeks).
• ✅ Daily coffee ($30/mo) – covered forever (53 weeks).
• 🎯 Mobile bill ($32/mo) – now 19.22% covered (up from 6.31% last week).

Annual dividends grew: $945.17 → $949.81 📈

That’s another $4.64 in yearly income — without lifting a finger.

What To Do Next (Wherever You Are)

📌 If you’re just starting out:

1️⃣ Pick your starting amount. $100, $250, $500 a week — doesn’t matter. The key is to start.

2️⃣ Download the MaxDividends App. The Assistant builds you a ready-to-go dividend plan and tracks progress toward covering real bills.

3️⃣ Celebrate your first win. Inside the App, mark your first expense covered (coffee, streaming, or phone). Share it in the community — small victories fuel momentum.

📌 If you’re already on the road:

✅ Stay consistent. Use the App’s tracker to watch your snowball grow week by week.

✅ Track your wins publicly. Post in the MaxDividends chat when you cross milestones — the community thrives on shared progress.

✅ Level up with new ideas. Each week we publish fresh dividend stock breakdowns and Roadmap updates. Use them to fine-tune your portfolio.

✅ Push the next milestone. With the App, set your next “bill target” (utilities, car, or mortgage) and let dividends knock it out.

✅ Reinvest every raise. Dividend hikes show up in your portfolio dashboard automatically — roll them back in, and watch your pace accelerate.
